Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Our 2018 Amalia Vineyard Syrah is a bit more of an elegant, floral style than the previous vintage, due in large part to a portion of the wine being co-fermented with Viognier. The lifted aromatics (violets and white pepper) complement the ripe fruit profile of blackberries and dark fruit. UNFINED AND LIGHTLY FILTERED
